​“The establishment of GEDWorks™ and the partnership between GED Testing Service and some of the nation’s largest employers marks a significant step toward our goal of expanding the pipeline of adult learners equipped to compete in today’s global economy.

These companies understand the importance of helping their employees gain the tools needed to participate in postsecondary education and professional training programs that will enable them to advance in their careers. This is the type of major initiative we envisioned in forming our joint venture with Pearson in 2011 to create the GED Testing Service and launch the new GED® program.”
